Hong Kong Island Tours

star-4.5

72 Reviews

Hong Kong Island once housed the area’s original British settlement, and nowadays, it’s home to some of the city’s most popular attractions. Highlights include Victoria Peak and its tram, the Central Mid-Levels escalator, Aberdeen, Deep Water Bay, picturesque Repulse Bay, and Stanley Market. The Central and Causeway Bay areas of the island are prime destinations for shopping, eating, and sightseeing. Away from Victoria Harbour is a surprising amount of greenery in the island’s mountainous interior, as well as a beguiling coastline dotted with fishing villages, coves, and harbors.

The Basics

Just about everyone who spends time in Hong Kong will find themselves on Hong Kong Island at one point or another. City tours, including hop-on hop-off bus tours, always make stops on the island, and the iconic Star Ferry passes between the island and Kowloon on the mainland. Catch the island’s highlights on a full- or half-day tour, or base yourself on the island to explore at a more leisurely pace, and know that the twin skylines of Hong Kong Island and Kowloon are best appreciated from a cruise around Victoria Harbour.

Things to Know Before You Go

Hong Kong Island is a must-visit for every type of traveler, especially first-time visitors to Hong Kong.

Wear comfortable shoes and prepare to do a fair bit of walking.

Don’t forget an umbrella, as weather can be unpredictable in Hong Kong.

How to Get There

Central Station, a major transportation hub in the city, is situated on Hong Kong Island, giving travelers a wealth of options for how to arrive. The Hong Kong Airport Express train takes passengers from the airport to the island in under 30 minutes, and numerous buses, trams, ferries, and metro lines make stops all over the island. Riding the Star Ferry across Victoria Harbour from Kowloon is a quintessential Hong Kong experience for first-time visitors.

When to Get There

One of the best times to visit Hong Kong Island is between October and December, when room rates are reasonable and temperatures are comfortable. The summer months (June to September) are both the hottest and the wettest, with temperatures around 80°F (27°C). If you choose to visit just after New Year’s or during a Chinese holiday, expect Hong Kong hotel rates to jump.

Panoramic Views on Hong Kong Island

Some of the city’s best views and observation platforms can be found on Hong Kong Island. Victoria Peak’s Sky Terrace, the most popular by far, affords 360-degree views of the city’s sea of skyscrapers, while the International Finance Centre (IFC) building ranks as the tallest on the island and houses a free 55th-floor viewing platform that looks across the harbor to Kowloon. Another free option is the 46th-floor lobby inside Central Plaza in Wan Chai.

This unique hop-on hop-off tour allows you to see all of Hong Kong’s highlights with ease. Hop off at any of the stops along the route and explore the sites at your leisure using a provided map. Whether it’s the Man Mo Temple, famed Stanley Market, or the fishing village of Aberdeen, your 24- or 48-hour ticket grants you access to various travel routes and one-way travel on the Star Ferry. There’s no easier or more flexible way to explore. Your Premium or Deluxe ticket includes a choice of admission to Sky100 Hong Kong observation deck or a ride on the Peak Tram. The Deluxe option also offers a traditional sampan ride and a tour of Kowloon at night.

Lace up your walking shoes for a tour of some of the best off-the-beaten-path destinations in Old Hong Kong. Follow your guide to less-visited destinations that you wouldn't find on your own, such as the Montane Mansion, the Chun Yeung Street wet market, and a family-run Chinese slipper embroidery store via "ding ding" tram. Traveling with a small group guarantees personalized attention from your guide.

We will design a bespoke itinerary, based on your preferences, that ensures that you see the things that will interest you the most.
Combine some of the must see’s like Victoria Peak and riding the Star Ferry with local neighborhoods. See the best of Hong Kong and become immersed in the local culture. Learn to eat like a local with a dim sum lunch, shop till you drop in the markets, visit a temple and have your fortune told, visit the most photogenic locations, discover Hong Kong's immense architecture.
Our cars seat a maximum of 5 passengers plus the guide and your driver.
We are very experienced in designing and delivering tours for couples, families with teenagers, families with young children, business travelers who have a short amount of time between meetings, the over 60s and corporate incentive trips.

We will jump right into the real Hong Kong with rides of double-decker tram (locals call it the "Ding Ding") through different areas from east to west of Hong Kong Island. Hopping off each stop we walk into lively local markets, experience century old ceremonies, hear the stories behind spots, and what is more - we will have 10 delicious tastings of local food and drinks on the way!
If you're here for the first time, book it on the early days of your trip so that you will have a general idea of the city's food and culture layout in different areas. If you're a frequent visitor, you will like the true local taste I choose for you. And you shall get to know more of the stories and history behind them.

This is a perfect pick for travelers who are short on time. Don’t waste a moment going to sights that don’t interest you, and instead, enjoy a private customized walking tour. Learn how to use local public transport, and enjoy the perk of skip-the-line access at Peak Tram. Exploring the city with a guide reveals where to find the best local food, and you’ll get top insights about Hong Kong history too. Choose a theme or specific area you want to see, and enjoy a tour tailored specifically for you.
